The Modern Consulship of Respublica Veneta is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Consul with a fair hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, anti-smoking policies, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 18.802 billion Venetorum are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The large, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government prioritizes Education, with Environment, Social Policy, and Healthcare also on the agenda, while Defense and Spirituality aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Rome. The average income tax rate is 99.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Veneta economy, worth a remarkable 5,435 trillion Faction Notes a year, is quite specialized and led by the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Information Technology, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 289,070 Faction Notes, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Hundreds of subterranean tunnels are being built as part of "Project Morlock", graffiti graces every city's streets, noises louder than a whisper have been prohibited by law, and the government spends more on chasing distant comets than on basic infrastructure. Crime is totally unknown. Respublica Veneta's national animal is the American Robin, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Respublica Veneta is ranked 53,130^th in the world and 1^st in Roman America for Highest Drug Use, scoring 90.8 on the Pineapple Fondness Rating.
